Casino Monte Lago

I didn't see anything posted bonus points wise for Monte Lago. They
are 2x points on Sundays in February.

Is this available to everyone or did you receive this as mailer? Thanks.

Casino Monte Lago used to be a top 5 play 2 yrs ago. When they
1st opened 3yrs ago, they had fpdw in evrey machine with frequent
2&3x pt days. I was able to play 2 machines at once and did quite
well. Then about a year ago they (for what insane reason I dont
know!) ran 5x pt days! By far one of the best quarter plays in vp
history as that added a full percent and a quarter to fpdw&fpjw!
In addition to this, any high denom. 8/5 bonus poker (including
2$ 10play & spin poker) presented a 150$+/hr. oppotunity. Evrey
big bankroll pro and semi pro quickly destroyed that as virtually
evreyone on this site hammered away on the jokers and ducks!
Needless to say CML took a beating the so called slot-promotional
people didnt see coming. They promptly took severve action.
Within 3 weeks multi-pt promos were virtually elimininated, fpdw
were downgraded on 95% of the machines, mailers were slashed
and/or completly eliminated, multi-line games are now xcempt from
multi-pt offers, evrey muli-denom upright with fpdw&fpjw had its
deal speed slowed to a crawl(ala Sams Town) and slot floor staff
(especially supervisors) are watching suspected advantage players
like SS officers! On one occasion, I was rudely told by a slot
floor supervisor 'we(CML)are tired of people like you making a
living here and thus no speeding up of machines'! Needless to say
Ive never been back and thats a shame casue it is a truly
comfortable place and the courtyard with the shoppes is rather
beautiful. In short if your cup of tea is a really long drive to
get to a few full pay ducks at ultra slow speed with no food/room
comps, then this is your place!

Well Dan, you have perfectly described why I don't go to MonteLago
anymore, not that I really miss the 58 mile round trip from
Summerlin. I was quite content with the 2X days and I am only a
quarter player. The cafe used to have a great Chicken Fettucine dish
for $4.99.

Now the latest mailer had four Blackjack match plays (does their
marketing dept expect to convert VP players?). Another coupon was
buy an entree; get the second at 1/2 price. Basically worthless to
the solo diner.

But I shall miss Melinda and Sherry; my favorite waitresses at CML.
